Help! I've been compulsively thrifting!

Lately, I've been doing some retail therapy at various thrift stores I'm exploring in our new area. Reading all these dang blogs, seeing everyone else's cool finds...how can I help myself?? I've found some things I really like for my collection and/or to decorate our home, but I've also decided to open an Etsy shop and try my hand at vintage vending. Here's some of my new loot:

  3. Your new site logo is "really gone"! That term DOES mean something's cool, right? Well, nonetheless, I think it is neat! Your Etsy shop looks promising, but you NEED to get more goodies on there...

  4. Thanx everyone!

    Oooh, I know I need to work on the shop! Got lots of photos taken, but now I have to do the hard part - the listings! And yes, "real gone" is a good thing; check out Like...Dreamsville from the blog roll to the right :)

  6. Hiya. Sorry to come in on the comments but couldn't find an email. Here’s what I offer. You either write a post about the petition for American Thrift today or write a short post linking to my post today and I will add a link to your post in the text of today’s post and add your blog to my new “A List” of petition supporters right underneath the petition widget. I would love it if you also picked up the widget and link and added it to your blog. I’m getting a graphic designer to design a logo for the petition. In addition too all that, I will add a link to your blog on the petition page. If you are on FB, send me (Amy Hardin Turosak) an invite with a note as to who you are to be friends and I will include you in the petition officers list with your blog. Now that’s a deal and a mouthful. Best, Shopping Golightly of The Thrifty Chicks

  7. Saw one of those divided metal dishes on etsy and thought of you - doesn't give it an actual name though.
